Having recently co-starred in Showtime's "Shameless" and ABC's "Speechless" with Minnie Driver, plus guest-starred in three episodes of Amazon's Original Series, "The Kicks," and appearing in season two of "Gortimer Gibbons: Life on Normal Street," Taylor Ann Thompson (18) is very busy. Taylor has studied at Lee Strasberg Theatre and Film Institute since she was 6 years old and is best known for capturing the hearts of millions in her role as Jack Nicholson's granddaughter in Rob Reiner's "The Bucket List." On the small screen she played the innocent Hannah in Lifetime's critically acclaimed, "Amish Grace." She also appeared in Lifetime's movie, "Liz & Dick," playing opposite Lindsay Lohan as Richard Burton's daughter, Kate Burton. Taylor is a writer, and her poem, "The Golden Rule," was selected by the National Schools Project and published in the 2010 edition of "Young American Poetry Digest." On May 15, 2013, Taylor organized and hosted a celebrity charity event with fashion retailer, Un Deux Trois, with the proceeds going to "One Fund Boston" to benefit the victims of the Boston Marathon bombings. Taylor was 8th Grade Valedictorian at St. Paul The Apostle School; President of the Freshman Class at Marymount High School, and recently graduated Marymount High School with academic distinction. This Los Angeles native enjoys the simple activities of any 18-year-old, but especially enjoys studying Spanish and French, writing, public speaking, and engaging with her friends and younger brother, Trevor (15).
